Twice Is Nice For `Uncle Elephant'

CINEMOM ON VIDEO

April 22, 1994

It's not easy for Arnie being a young elephant in the big wide world alone after his parents are lost at sea. But Uncle Elephant offers to take care of him.

Arnie feels kind of dumb these days - and very sad. And if he got the chance to do it all again he'd sure treat his parents differently. But as for right now, he can't figure out why anyone would love him.

Uncle Elephant doesn't seem to need a lot of reasons to share time and hugs with his elephant orphan. They fight the blues together cracking jokes and singing songs. Arnie learns to greet the day with a good loud trumpet and to take care of his Uncle, who is very wrinkled and old.

Glad to say there's a happy ending, except that Uncle Elephant misses Arnie already. And your moppet will too when the video ends. Just pop Uncle Elephant in the VCR again.
